Chapter 43: It's difficult to handle.

"Master, are you busy?"

Adonis was standing by the door with a tray full of sweets and a cup of tea. It was Viktor's afternoon tea time.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

The clock in the study room rungs when it became 4 PM. The dial of the clock was made of gold which was reflecting the sunlight on it, creating an aesthetic vibe in the room.

"Come in."

He flipped a page of his book and asked Adonis to come in with his tea.

"Master, may I ask a question? novε/lb/1n

"Go ahead."

"Why are you avoiding eye contact with everyone since yesterday? Is there something wrong?"

"Oh, it's because I don't want to invade people's personal lives. It's really useless to know about anyone."

"How's looking at someone make you think that you're invading a person's personal life may I ask?"

"Their books above their head. If I look at them, I can read every single detail about him in a millisecond. It's so annoying."

I have to learn how not to read a record accidentally. It distracts me a lot.

"I am sure you can find a way to prevent this from happening, master. I will leave your tea on this table. Please enjoy your afternoon."

"You too."

Adonis closed the door and he closed the book to hold his teacup. He took a seat beside the windows and saw people walking far away from his home with books above their heads. But he was too far away to be able to read it.

Is there any type of magic that I can use to lock those books? They are so disturbing.

I better stop looking into the people's personal life inside my head. It's so annoying. I nearly read Adonis's records and saw a censored episode this morning.

"Well, he's a hundred-year-old man. Having a harem isn't something new to the demons."

But...

"How do I turn this thing off? Ugh, this headache when I accidentally read a book in a millisecond! It's really uncomfortable to read such a detailed censored episode of a person's life."

Every person has this kind of experience once or daily in their life which should be kept secret from other people.

Humans are humans, we all have desires for the opposite sex or the same sex given by the one and only creator. Whether we should fulfil that desire or ignore, it depends on us.

Viktor was looking outside and trying his best to stop that skill of his by looking at those strangers. He looked at them straight for two hours and finally he figured out a way to stop that.

The chain lock magic.

Why didn't I think about it before? There are a lot of magic spells saved inside my crest of destruction. A chain lock is a magic that allows you to lock a non-living object with a chain so that It won't work on its own. It works like a circuit breaker.

If I cast this magic around me, I will be able to lock everyone's book so that I don't read it accidentally.

A millisecond isn't that long in reality but it distracts the attention away from the people I'm having a conversation with.

I had to endure an entire day reading thousands of records in the academy. It's really funny but also very frustrating.

I feel like I'm stepping back from being a human day by day. If it continues, I don't know what kind of being I will turn into at the end of the day.

I was always alone back in my world, but being alone in this new world too will be considered a failure in my life.

I will turn into a monster if that happens.

...

Inside the kitchen at 7 PM.

Viktor came out of his study room and called Adonis for dinner in the kitchen. He was wearing a pink apron with a bunny sticker and a big spoon in his hand.

A typical handsome cook looking at his master with his orange puppy eyes in excitement.

"Master, you're finally looking at me!"

"What are you making? It smells nice."

"It's chicken soup master. I learned it from this cooking book I bought today. Humans are really good at cooking. It's like a passion to them."

"Yes, we love to eat."

"I just discovered my hidden hobby."

Adonis was so happy that he made 2 more dishes for dinner.

He's really cheerful. I need to buy him more cooking books from the noble bookstore.

But how do I get into the noble neighbourhood?

At 8 PM, Adonis served dinner for both of them in the dining room. The room became filled with the delicious smell of the food and they started to eat.

"Master, is the soup still warm?"

"Yes."

Viktor looked at him and accidentally, he read half of his whole life's record in a millisecond and he stopped eating.

Hah! Come on... I forgot to turn on the chain lock spell.

But,

Just how many new things do I have to discover about him? Seriously?

Your blood is from the direct line of a guardian? Are you kidding me? You're the great great grandson of a powerful demon guardian. And I'm here treating you like a butler of this house. Your great great grandfather is going to beat the crap out of me if he finds out I'm treating you like this.

"I am tired"

Adonis was so shocked that his food went down in the wrong pipe.

"Khuekkhukk khuhkk!!!"

Huh? Is that Adonis???

This was the first time Viktor saw him cough, so he was speechless.

-How can he open his mouth wide like a whale to cough and still look damn handsome...

"Are you okay?"

Viktor asked because he was coughing for over a minute.

"Yes. But master, what happened to you?"

-Hah! What am I going to do with this loyal demon -_-.

"I am fine. I just want to take a vacation after all these things are finished. "

Now I understand why the guardian of knowledge left for a century-long vacation.
